 | | Throwbots and Roboriders —Bradley Dale
|
| | | I do not have any of these sets, but I was thinking of buying one. They are not that expensive (unless you look at the piece count- yikes!), and seem very fun to play with. If I get a Throwbot, I will probably get Amazon or Granite, if a Roborider, (...) (24 years ago, 11-Jul-00, to lugnet.technic)

The RoboRiders are easier to play around with, since they are on wheels you just roll them around instead of worrying about posing them and stuff. But in the end they (...)

An ironic choice of words, since I think it's the only one with 4 legs ;-) Granite certainly doesn't cut it as a pretend "fierce robo-warrior", but he does make a kinda-cute little dog. Maybe I'll put one one display as a Pit Droid Pet (...) (24 years ago, 12-Jul-00, to lugnet.technic)

At least Turbo has wheels and Electro has wings, Granite just has pickaxes that wack his own front legs. However, if you're going for a (...) (24 years ago, 14-Jul-00, to lugnet.technic)

| | | | | I now own all of the RoboRiders, and if I had to rate them, I'd do it in a couple of categories: In Overall Design: Swamp Power Frost Dust Onyx Lava In Part-Bashing (ability to use parts in other models): Power (yellow and black) Lava (red and (...)

| | | | | Throwbots 2 for $10 at Zany Brainy w/ coupon —Sean Harrington
|
| | | | As for Throwbots, I'm just starting to collect them. Zany Brainy has them in their 8/3/2000 catalog as 2 for $10 (Millenium and Blaster not included). You must have a coupon for them, but most stores have extra catalogs with the coupon on the back (...) (24 years ago, 5-Aug-00, to lugnet.technic)

I didn't check to see whether they have the whole line, because I already have all the ones I want. It's a "clearance" sale, so there's a good chance that (...)

| | | | (...) Thanks for the update, Ran. With shipping and everything, however, it doesn't make sense to go through eToys. I can have them all TODAY for $50 plus tax. Most Zany Brainy stores don't care if you get more than two at once, and you DON'T have (...) (24 years ago, 6-Aug-00, to lugnet.technic)
